Pumice Stone and Manashield

Brimestar · 11-30-2007, 05:02 PM

Is it just me, but every time I pumice stone a mage with manashield on (and the stone lands) the manashield is still there...

Maybe his point was that Pumice Stone is underpowered....

I've noticed it works about 50% of the time. Lucky for me I'm a druid and can serene symbol AA it off if Pumice fails.

in general i dont use them because of the amt of time it takes to cast, and as I recall you got to be stationary to cast it -- but yea, when in the past I have used them they are generally resisted. So you got to do the manashield shuffle -- hide behind a rock and try to suck their power dry.

The last 2 times i got pumised my mana shield went bye bye, last time i used it on a mage it went bye bye.

Sometime it works, sometimes it doesnt live with it!!!

I've stopped buying it. Either it's resisted or it takes off a big pile of useless rubbish.

Well there is nothing on the pumice stone that says 'removes manashield everytime'. Guess what... every time I used pumice stone on a swashy it left all of their buffs and poisons on.

Awesome, I bring up the fact that Pumice stone doesn't remove scout poisons and non-bard buffs and you stopped crying about manashield not getting removed every once in a while.

Please FIX pumice stone so it removes something from brigands, swashbucklers, rangers and assassins other than their temp buffs. If they can use pumice stone to remove 90% of mage/priest/bard buffs then why should they go untouched by the item? Poisons cost a few silver to replace and don't effect the outcome of a fight as much as removing abilities that cost many achievement points to obtain.

Huh? Are you using T1 handcrafted poisons on your ranger?

Rofl, if you're using bargain basement poisons. For those of us who are smart and never leave town without mastercrafted this would get expensive. I don't know of any scouts who settle for handcrafted poisons. Course it might be the guys below me on the parse but I never thought to ask.
